33. Well...
I've considered such a switch myself. I've been trying to inform people around me about Marx and what he had to say about workers and owners of capital. Some of the people around me thought, "Yeah, yeah, yeah, but we gotta defeat the Republicans, and the only way to do it is by sticking with the Democrats."

Well, it didn't work, did it? Bush is still in office. Even worse, the Democratic Party has given up on such "socialistic" ideas as Universal Health Care. Now it seems as though we are only a party of "anti-Republicans".

There's a saying: "Stand for something, or you'll fall for anything." Well, we're falling.

Btw:

:yourock:

Good for you, for sticking to your principles.
